Phytoplankton
I participated the autumn excursion of the Finnish Phytoplankton Society during my residency in Kilpisjärvi (2.-8.9.2012). We were 7 phytoplankton experts and me as an artist. Researcher Laura Forsström was our experienced team leader. Last three years I have been focused on plankton, especially on learning to know and understand single cell algae more deeply. Every day we hiked to take water samples from the lakes and ponds in the mountains. In the evenings we watched and evaluated the samples together. I include here three photos I took during these days. This is a link to the site of of the Finnish Phytoplankton Society http://www.kasviplanktonseura.fi
